Stripboard

Stripboard is a widely-used type of electronics prototyping board characterized by a 0.1 inch (2.54 mm) regular grid of holes, with parallel (untinned) copper tracks running in one direction all the way across on one side of the board. It is usually known by the name Veroboard, which is a trademark of companies Vero Technologies Ltd and Canadian Pixel Print Ltd.

Generally stripboard is good for prototyping, but not for building circuits to last. It is more commonly available made of SRBP which is brittle because of all the holes. Boards made from epoxy fibreglass are much stronger. Stripboard is prone to stray capacitance. This makes it probably unsuitable for prototyping high precision oscillators.

In using the board, breaks are made in the tracks, usually easiest around the holes, to divide the strips into nodes and links are made between tracks, on the component side, to connect nodes.
